    in WOW....Look at that calorie burn!!! Comment by losinglynn June 2009
  • I'm just finishing up my 10K training, the run is next weekend. Been looking ahead to other events and there's a half marathon in October that I'd like to run. I got a half training schedule from my friend who works for a major running company.... while I don't mind dedicating myself to training, this one requires a 5 day…

  • Shred is an awesome alternative when you need to mix things up a bit! Seriously kicks your butt and gets you sweating. On average I get about an hour of cardio 6 days a week and I was sore the next day, this was after a 20 min session! :wink:

  • I know isn't it weird that there's a 11.5/min mile and a 10/min mile but no 11 :( I wondered about that too. Congrats on your awesome run this morning BTW!! :smile: I had a quick 3K tempo earlier today, 12K LSD tomorrow morning.

  • I make my stove top oatmeal w/ vanilla almond breeze, ground flax & a diced banana. Top w/ a spoonful of peanut butter, more sliced banana, a few sliced almonds, sprinkle of mini chocolate chips and a few raisins. So good and EXTREMELY filling!

  • That is awesome! I've been struggling to get under 190lbs now for 3 months. I keep bouncing from 193-198 (mostly b/c I got frustrated etc.) But still. Congrats and Happy Friday!!

  • My WI this morning showed me down 5.4lbs from when I started this past Saturday. I know that most of that loss is from water retention b/c I've made a HUGE effort to eat nothing processed this week. Still puts a smile on my face this Friday morning!! Start Weight: 193.2 Goal Weight: 189.9

  • It provides your body with fuel. It maintains your blood sugar levels so that you don't end up feeling tired/lethargic. I've read lots of articles that basically state that people who don't eat breakfast tend to over eat at other times throughout the day because they're so hungry.
    in why is breakfast so important? Comment by losinglynn April 2009
  • I just finished reading Jillian's Master book too and for fun I entered the ingredients off of my Johnson's Baby Lotion into google....quite the eyeopener :ohwell: I will be on the search for better beauty products next time I'm shopping.

  • Eat lots of grilled chicken, fish. When eating salads ask for the dressing/croutons/cheese on the side. Ask questions as to how certain foods are prepared so you know! Instead of having the whole sandwhich/wrap, eat half w/ a salad and get the other half wrapped up. Drink h20 with your meal to help fill you up. Start off…

  • Have you tried PB2 - Powdered Peanut Butter & Chocolate Peanut Butter? It's basically dehydrated peanut butter - chemical free of course. Its great! I LOVE PB and AB and pretty much every nut butter out there. I sometimes will use this in place of PB if I want to limit my calories etc. 2tbsp of this stuff has approx 55…

  • IMO "dieting" is only a temporary solution. Changing your eating habits and developing an exercise routine will allow you to live a healthy life, permanently. :) 800 calories a day is starvation mode and the body will rebel. You're doing the right thing by eating within the guidelines set when you joined.
    in MFP vs. 800 calorie per day diet??? Comment by losinglynn April 2009
  • Just wanted to say Hi and introduce myself.... My name's Lynn, I'm a 26/F and over the past year & a half I've lost a little over 90lbs! (Yah!!) First by following WWs Points Online and then by tracking calories at Sparkpeople. Both of those tools have helped but since Christmas time I've been losing/gaining the same 5lbs…
